Nope ;). Minettia longipennis, Lauxaniidae.

that's not good! I wish you all the best!

I was not as unlucky as you in the last time, but after my PC crashed in April (it still does not work, yet; I use a *very* old computer at the moment), also my camera lost it's trigger. A friend of mine in the Netherlands was able to get a similar used camera for a good price and sent it to me on May, 12th. It still has not arrived here... But three days ago I heard, that it was not lost at least. The german mail (DHL) could not find me here :S, although the address was written correctly. So after one month the package went back to the sender... He has sent it to me again, and it is announced to arrive today. I'm pretty excited if all works well now...

I'm sorry that your pc crashed. I repair computers with 20 years experience and i am a programmer, so maybe i can help you with it. I'll send you my email address in a pm. you could always send it to me but i would recommend Hermes. I don't get most of my packages from DHL either. I've had shouting matches with them many times :)
